lashes2508 Posted May 9, 2015 Author Posted May 9, 2015 This must have been the longest I've waited for a reply so I'm assuming everyone uses their LA for it ? Quote
thumperrabbit Posted May 9, 2015 Posted May 9, 2015 Yes our LEA do it as a 'webinar' training now - chargable too Not as good as face to face training in my opinion though 1 Quote
lashes2508 Posted May 15, 2015 Author Posted May 15, 2015 Thanks I emailed our CPD team and the response was that the course was not mandatory but having a Enco is ! Quote
thumperrabbit Posted May 16, 2015 Posted May 16, 2015 Thanks I emailed our CPD team and the response was that the course was not mandatory but having a Enco is ! How ridiculous! I'm quite concerned about training now, I'm sure I'm not the only one with daily emails from companies promoting courses and they cost hundreds of £'s - luckily we don't have the money for that but how do you know what you are 'buying in to' is reputable & relevant? 1 Quote
Joanne123 Posted May 16, 2015 Posted May 16, 2015 Thanks I emailed our CPD team and the response was that the course was not mandatory but having a Enco is ! We haven't got named ENCO!! Is this mandatory in your area or everywhere? Quote
mundia Posted May 16, 2015 Posted May 16, 2015 No not mandatory, it was taken out fo the last EYFS framework. However you still need to show how your practice is inclusive and anti discriminatory and for any settings they prefer to still have an equalities leader, or combine equalities with SENCo and have just one inclusion lead. 1 Quote
lashes2508 Posted May 16, 2015 Author Posted May 16, 2015 Essex states it's Mandatory and you have to have named person. Quote
louby loo Posted May 16, 2015 Posted May 16, 2015 Essex states it's Mandatory and you have to have named person. If I had the strength and willpower left it me I would challenge it. I did it with that ridicules L2 + L3 H&3 fiasco a few years back :huh: 1 Quote

Thanks, we are inclusive and anti discriminatory, just do not have named person overseeing it, it just happens all the time! 1 Quote

thumperrabbit Posted August 21, 2015 Posted August 21, 2015 Are you members of the Preschool Learning Alliance - if so they do a on-line Equality & Diversity module or perhaps your LA still do training? Quote
